【Sichuan】Spicy Boiled Fish

Mar 12, 2022

Boiled fish, also known as boiled river fish in river water, is a dish invented by people living in the Bashu area and was first popular in Sichuan (including present-day Chongqing). It seems to be an original method, but the actual workmanship is exquisite - choose fresh and live fish, and give full play to the functions of pepper to keep out the cold, nourish qi and nourish blood. It not only removes the fishy smell, but also keeps the fish fresh and tender. The eye-catching chili is bright and eye-catching, spicy but not dry, numb but not bitter. "It's hot and spicy", making boiled fish a mess in the country. Although I am from the north, I like to eat some Sichuan dishes very much. My method is not necessarily authentic, but I learned it from my brother-in-law who is a chef. He specializes in freshwater fish. I believe it should be the same. My mother-in-law's house is by the lake, so all kinds of fish are indispensable for New Year's Eve. I used to hate eating freshwater fish. I always felt an earthy smell. Limited to all kinds of spicy fish"
